SOL LAm SIb DO
Fare you well, my honey, fare you well my only true one.
SOL REm SIb DO
All the birds that were singing are flown, except you alone
FA SIb
Going to leave this Broke-down Palace,
FA REm SIb FA SOLm
On my hands and knees, I will roll, roll, roll
FA LA SIb FA
Make myself a bed by the waterside,
FA SOL SIb FA
In my time, in my time, I will roll, roll, roll
FA LA SIb FA SOL
In a bed, in a bed, by the waterside I will lay my head
FA SOL SIb FA
Listen to the river sing sweet songs to rock my soul
River gonna take me
Sing me sweet and sleepy
Sing me sweet and sleepy
all the way back home
It's a far-gone lullaby
sung many years ago
Mama, Mama, many worlds I've come
since I first left home
Going home, going home
Listen to the river sing sweet songs
to rock my soul
Going to plant a weeping willow
On the bank's green edge, it will grow, grow, grow
Sing a lullaby beside the water
Lovers come and go-the river roll, roll, roll
Fare you well, fare you well
I love you more than words can tell
Listen to the river sing sweet songs
to rock my soul.
